Rumsey March 31/66

Maj Genl C.B. Fisk

Dr Sir
In consequence of certain laws being prepared by this Ky Legislation in relation to negroes after which seeing no money in it for an Asst Supt of the Freedman's Bureau Permit me to withdrawn my name as an applicant for an appointment in the Bureau.

When I recd notice promising me this appointment for Hopkins & Webster Counties & requesting me to select my Head Quarters I wrote immediately & selected Madisonville.

And was summoned to go to Frankfurt to Court when I had to remain several weeks.

On my return I find an appointment has been made to which I make an objection.

Please return the paper which I sent you dated in 1845 & signed by several persons

Very Respy
R. G. Samuel
